FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Department of Commerce and Insurance, Kansas City and the City of 
Springfield each assume the proposal will have no fiscal impact on their respective 
organizations. Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. Therefore, Oversight 
will reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note.  
In response to a similar proposal from this year (HB 655), officials from the Department of 
Labor and Industrial Relations assumed the proposal will have no fiscal impact on their 
organization. Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. Therefore, Oversight will 
reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note.  
Oversight notes Sections 287.900 – 287.920 RSMo, creating the Missouri Employers Mutual 
Insurance Company were established in law in 1993 (SB 251) and the sections have not been 
altered in subsequent years.
Rule Promulgation
Officials from the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules assume this proposal is not 
anticipated to cause a fiscal impact beyond its current appropriation. 
In response to a previous version, officials from the Office of the Secretary of State (SOS) 
noted many bills considered by the General Assembly include provisions allowing or requiring 
agencies to submit rules and regulations to implement the act. The SOS is provided with core 
funding to handle a certain amount of normal activity resulting from each year's legislative 
session. The fiscal impact for this fiscal note to the SOS for Administrative Rules is less 
than $5,000. The SOS recognizes that this is a small amount and does not expect that 
additional funding would be required to meet these costs. However, the SOS also recognizes 
that many such bills may be passed by the General Assembly in a given year and that 
collectively the costs may be in excess of what the office can sustain with its core budget. 
Therefore, the SOS reserves the right to request funding for the cost of supporting administrative 
rules requirements should the need arise based on a review of the finally approved bills signed by 
the governor.
Oversight only reflects the responses received from state agencies and political subdivisions; 
however, other cities were requested to respond to this proposed legislation but did not. A listing 
of political subdivisions included in the Missouri Legislative Information System (MOLIS) 
database is available upon request. L.R. No. 1166S.05P
